Description
I LOVED this book. I tore through it in a day. I think it's even better than Love Letters! Absolutely loved the clever twist on the matchmaking-romance trope. It was so up my street, it was practically parked on my drive! Gripping, tense, and funny in all the right ways, I couldn't put it down.

Like every good romance, this story ends with a wedding. And like every good mystery, it begins with a murder...
When Alexandra's fiance runs off with her so-called best friend, her life veers sharply away from the romance films she's obsessed with. She's worked so hard to get her fairytale ending after the horrors of her past, and despite this setback, she's determined she'll still find her happy ever after.
To distract herself, Alexandra tries to focus on her job where she has a secret specialty: matchmaking psychopaths. But in losing the two people closest to her, she's unignorably lonely. So when a hot, overprotective new client wants to date her, and another gorgeous new client wants to become her best friend, she can't help but find the attention a little comforting.
Things take a turn the day the human heart is left on Alexandra's doorstep. But is the culprit one of her new admirers, or has a monster from her past returned to destroy her happy ending forever?
Matchmaking for Psychopaths is an unbelievably twisty and gripping read about obsession, filled with Tasha Coryell's signature observational humour and satirical slant.
